In an interview with India Today, Saurabh Shukla opened up about his eight-hour work shift. He shared, “If you’re in a flow, I really think that, suddenly, if you’re going half an hour or one hour beyond your working hours, then you should not crib about it because, in bargaining, you’re getting much more. That continuity of thought and continuity of that flow.”The actor expressed that the time limit or the fixed shift hour should exist, “but that is not the main thing.” According to him, the important thing is “the piece you’re creating.” <\/p>\n
